After 11 years of Liberal rule, where Gay marriage has been welcome, Meth Clinics springing up all over Canada to give Meph heads Free meph, and Canada welcome Terrorist into its Country with Arms Wide open, the People of canada has had enough, and Voted Paul Martin out of Office.
Congrats Canada, maybe now youll be viewed as a "real country"
Ahh yes, but the Conservative leader insists on jail time for smoking a joint.Quote:

I don't know from what perspective you are looking, but in the world's eye, Canada is a "real country".
This is not to say the Liberals are any good. All Canadians did was elect the lesser of 2 evils. I can just see pisshead's post about how the American admin. helped Harper get elected (helped him cheat to win). :thumbsup:
I voted NDP, but honeslty I'm not all that disappointwed that the Conservatives one, if only for the sake of change. The Liberals have been in power since 1993, and there isn't a political party on Earth that can stay in power that long without becoming extremely corrupt.
Besides, the Conservatives have a very slim majority, so they won't be able to force any crazy legislation without the support of at least one or two orther parties, who are all more to the left. I think Canada will be better off in the long run, even though Harper is Bush North.
In actuality, the Conservatives have only a minority govt. not a majority, not even a "slim majority". That means the govt. can be defeated at anytime and we can have another election in just a few months. The longest a minority govt. has held power is always less than 2 years.Quote:

Harper as Bush north - it will be interesting to see how CDN/Am. relations change over the next few months.
Smart move for the Canadian Peeps. More here.
